The trailer jack can lift the trailer to a certain point so that the trailer can be hung on any trailer or installed and written on the trailer parts. In order to make the right choice when buying a trailer jack, please consider the following three factors.

Trailer jacks are mounted to the tongue or frame of your trailer in different ways. The two most common are weld-on jacks and bolt-on jacks. Weld-on jacks are usually sturdier because of the way they are attached. But if you decide that you need a new one, they will be slightly more troublesome to replace. Bolt-on jacks come in a variety of attachment configurations that all have one thing in common—they use large bolts and locknuts to attach the jack to the trailer tongue or frame. Weld-on jacks typically have a higher weight rating. Both function the same during the actual jacking process.

Most trailer jacks are powered the old-fashioned way—cranking them with your arm or arms until they reach the desired height. While not always the easiest job, it is easier and safer than trying to pick a trailer tongue up off the ground and place it onto the hitch ball without crushing any body parts.

One alternative—electric-powered trailer jacks—can make the job even easier. Power jacks come in all shapes and sizes. Many trailer jacks are set up for 12-volt battery use, so if you have your vehicle with you, you already have your power source at hand. Better jack models have all-steel internal components, and some even have a manual crank override in case you don’t have access to the power needed to operate them.

Whether you choose bolting or welding, hand crank or electric, the strength of the jack is the most we need to consider. The rated weight of the jack must far exceed the tongue weight of the trailer. If not, your trailer jack will not work and may even cause some safety incidents.
